Study Summary
In high-volume trauma centers, multi-slice CT scanners have become the routine imaging modality for screening trauma patients due to their speed and accuracy. In trauma patients with no known neurologic deficits, diagnostic CT is often obtained though it remains unclear whether this affects management of the patient \[1\]. With the growing cost of health care, a careful look at the benefit and cost of CT is needed to determine how to best utilize this modality in the evaluation of trauma patients. HYPOTHESIS: In trauma patients with absence of neurologic defects, the addition of comprehensive CT does not change overall clinical management.
